Something is really broken in my python installation. I'm trying to run update-manager, but it fails:

# update-manager
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/update-manager", line 32, in <module>
    from UpdateManager.UpdateManager import UpdateManager
ImportError: No module named UpdateManager.UpdateManager

That's with /usr/bin/python pointing at /usr/bin/python2.5 . If I change the symlink to point at /usr/bin/python2.4 , I get a different error:

# update-manager
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/update-manager", line 28, in ?
    import gtk
ImportError: No module named gtk

I have already run apt-get --reinstall install python2.4 python2.5 python-gtk2 python-glade2 update-manager .

Do I have to uninstall python2.4 and python2.5, and everything on which they depend (most of my GNOME, etc), then reinstall everything? How am I supposed to keep track of what to reinstall? This is a mess.
